Love love love this place!!

Perfect spot for lunch and to pick up a few vegan products. This is a restaurant with seating upstairs and down and a shop with both cold food (tofu, tempeh, vegan cheese, kambucha and more.) and bakery items like cookies and their quinoa bread. They even sell vegan wine.
We stopped for lunch and had coffee and sandwiches. I am not at all a sandwich person being gluten free but couldn’t resist the quinoa bread seitan sandwich and my husband had the tofu sandwich. As another person had written in a review - best sandwiches in my life! Coffee was good too. Friendly staff and nice tables in and out. Altogether a wonderful experience. It’s not cheap though!
Wish I was here longer as I’d definitely go back!

Pros: Everything is vegan and gluten free, Delicious food and friendly staff, Shop well stocked too

Cons: Pretty expensive

Exquisita pizza

Muy amables en la atención al cliente.
La pizza es de masa de quinua con pesto de albahaca, tomates cheery, salsa de tomate, y les pedí que le agregarán unas tiras de tofu, entre otros. Servida con aceite de oliva y sal rosada.

Amazing

The restaurant is now at the corner of calle 24 and calle 27. Very pretty place and very nice staff, some speak English. I had a mango smoothie and the vegan protein sandwich, which was the best sandwich I have ever had. The quinoa bread was incredible, same for the tempeh and all the rest.

Some great options!

I loved the raw pizza they have. Unfortunately everything comes in a plastic container and is already prepared beforehand and therefore there's nothing hot. But food tastes great. I loved the passionfruit cheesecake!!!
Possible to pay with creditcard

Pros: Vegan options, lovely cheesecake

Cons: Quite expensive like everything else in Uruguay

great vegan items outlet & food boutique

This is the best place in Punts del Este to buy any vegan ingredient, from toothpaste to any kind if flour, spice, tofu, etc.
They also serve very good food, and have a small selection if organic vegetables, cold pressed juices, and takeaway dishes.
Prices and dishes are very reasonable.
Atmosphere is very vegan, and overall great place to eat or buy ingredients.

Pros: located at center, loads of ingredients

Cons: only 2 tables, limited selection of meals

Great Grocery store

I went at 11.30am and there were only juices made. If you are looking for a grocery store, somewhere to buy cool juices or a place to wait your food and eat its ok; if you want fast food for take out or if you are in a hurry its not great. Other than that, its a lovely place and with kind people.
Accepts credit cards
Sometimes has açai bowls

Number one market in Punta del este

Well.. there is not a lot of easy finds in Punta, but this market is great and every one that works there look healthy and happy which is what we want. Also they have a big selection of organics which are super hard to find in the area and really your only choice for a lot of products. Well done

Good vegan find

This place offers freshly made vegan sandwiches (with nut cheeses etc.), ready made meals like veggie cous cous and vegan brownies. It also has a juice bar. It doesn't have an extensive menu but what it does, it does well.

The store part is also great and you can find your veggie staples (e.g. tahini, rice milk) as well as some bonus items like chocolate rice milk desserts. There is also a reasonable selection of raw foods.

If you're in Punta del Este, it's definitely worth checking out.

Pros: Vegan and raw choices
